Monday, April 26, 2021 at 2:43PM We were soooo sick yesterday -- WORTH IT TO BE FULLY VACCINATED! -- so we're just catching up now. But if you're not on twitter we wouldn't want you to miss these bon mots. Enjoy.

Apparently Olivia Colman was supposed to do the speech for him but Joaquin Phoenix didn't realize or some such. Now we feel doubly cheated...
Someone give Viola Davis an Oscar just for this performance of her pretending to take a shot https://t.co/aXVTwTSRna #Oscars pic.twitter.com/NJdHuQJxkF

Let's look on the bright side: They've now scientifically demonstrated that the Oscar producers don't know who won in advance. It's a tribute to award security.

wtf? A reporter asks Yuh-Jung Youn what Brad Pitt smelled like. "I didn't smell him, I'm not dog." pic.twitter.com/XK86mAWB3l

Brad Pitt deserves an Oscar for still being fine as fuck.

I love how Youn Yuh-jung’s approach to this whole thing was, “Uh, thank you, it’s insane that I’m here but since you asked, I am in fact hilarious.”

Unless you're Meryl Streep with a strong campaign, don't wear gold to the #Oscars. People should've learned from Glenn Close. pic.twitter.com/yWmzAGVC1N

1. Glenn Close doing Da Butt
2. Best Picture already??
3. Bo Burnham drinking spit
4. Frances McDormand, wolfwalker
5. A final win that no one is there for
the end of the oscars was like having the lights come on at the bar with no last call warning

Alan Kim, Glenn Close, Oscar Ceremonies, Oscars (20), Twitter, Youn Yuh-Jung

People think that Youn Yuh-jung was fawning over Brad Pitt but she basically just dragged him in front of the whole world lol. What kind of producer (executive but still) never showed up to the set. She also mentioned that she hoped he and the Plan B company pays her better next time.
I was there for the final win. Oh, they meant actors in the building.
This ceremony was so boring that it couldn't even make fun memes :(
The fact that we were deprived a Colman speech is crushing.
Couldn't make fun memes? Glenn Close not enough for you?
Would someone clear up to me how Florian Zeller had his Oscar trophy abroad? Doesn't this indicate that he already knew he won?
Glenn Close was hilarious! But for a whole ceremony, it's just not enough.
It was interesting, and I liked the intimate setting, however I would rather not see it done like this again. We finally learned what it would be like if the winners were allowed to speak and not played off. And I learned that I prefer shorter, wittier speeches.
And ironically they failed to let Olivia Colman speak and she's always fabulous.
Katey Rich speaks for me when she tweeted:
"I want next year’s Oscars to be gigantic, and I want them to start with this as a model"
The model being Molly Shannon singing "Husavik" in Iceland with choir and fireworks.
I was thinking that about wearing gold...oh no, don't jinx yourselves! And lo and behold...
I don't think Youn Yuh-jung was fawning or dragging Brad Pitt. She was just teasing him, and being fabulous doing it.
Lol at the Annie Wu tweet.
Glenn Close, Rita Moreno, and Youn Yuh-jung for Bad Grandmas? Add Pam Grier to that equation and then there's something we can talk about as I would totally like to see that.
Glenn saved the night singlehandedly.
Who the hell wants to hear Colman laugh-talking again? LMFAO
The show was horrible and unfunny.
I was devastated that Carey Mulligan didn't win but that was mitigated by Anthony Hopkins winning. He was purely genius in The Father. It would have been too much to hope for Riz to also win.
Giuliana Rancid was horrible as ever in the E! preshow, but it was Lil Rel Howery who singlehandedly ruined anything the show tried to do.
Right when people wanted the show to end, the producers force a "funny but staged" bit that involved a little too much of a continued bromance Lil Rel Howery was trying to force with Daniel Kaluuya. No. Thank. You.
